Jimmy Buffett, Kenny Chesney, Zac Brown Band and more, performing live, on a beach, and it’s free. Need I say more? This event is only a week and half away so start planning now. It is a 10 hour drive from me, does that scare me? NO! See you there!

Here is the story from the associated press.

Jimmy Buffett and a few of his friends plan to give a free concert on the Alabama coast to show support for the Gulf region.

Alabama tourism director Lee Sentell says show will be July 1 on the beach at Gulf Shores.

Buffett’s website says the concert is meant to demonstrate support for the people, businesses and culture of the Gulf Coast. It will be broadcast live on CMT.

Buffett and his Coral Reefer Band will be joined in Gulf Shores by Sonny Landreth, Zac Brown Band, Kenny Chesney, Jesse Winchester and Allen Toussaint.

A special souvenir T-shirt will be designed for the concert. It will be available online and at the show.
